Find functions called by a given function

How to control find_callees ↓

AI agents call find_callees to retrieve information from Reporecall without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool performs static analysis to retrieve call graph information from an indexed codebase. It reads and returns data about which functions are invoked by a specified function, with no side effects, modifications, or code execution. The operation is purely informational and safe for an AI agent to use.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'find_callees' and description 'Find functions called by a given function' indicate a query operation that retrieves information about code structure without modifying or executing code.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access find_callees gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Reporecall, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for find_callees:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "find_callees": {}
  }
}

find_callees is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Reporecall — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
